I have a carbon fiber tripod with a 234RC head--but use Arca plates on cameras. Any suggestions for an inexpensive head that would use these plates? I would love to be able to use monopod without changing plates Thanks in advance for your help John
If you like the way the 234RC handles for you, there is also Manfrotto's non-QR version of the 234RC head, the 234: http://amzn.com/B001A1POL8 Add any Arca-compatible plate mount to it, and you're good to go.
